20100201621 | MOVING OBJECT DETECTING APPARATUS, MOVING OBJECT DETECTING METHOD, POINTING DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - Even when a user is gazing at one point intentionally but the eyeball of the user is actually moving slightly, the slight movement is not reproduced as it is as the position of a cursor but a determination is made that the user is gazing at one point intentionally, that is, the eyeball is stopping. Thus, when a determination is made that the eyeball is stopping, the cursor is displayed still even when the gazing point is moving slightly depending on the slight movement. Furthermore, when a determination is made that the cursor is stopped, selection of an object such as other icon displayed at a position where the cursor is displayed is identified. | 08-12-2010 |
